While they can be helpful in reining in our spending, it can be tough to be creative on an imposed budget. Or, as is often the case, the limit has been put in place for Secret Santa, which is always difficult unless you know your gift-ee really well.

Here are some of our favourite ideas that come in under the $50 limit which cover ‘something for everyone’. There’s purposeful gifts (things that will definitely be used), as well as the more frivolous games and makeup.

Take a look!

stemless-wine-glass-gift
Myer

Harmony Stemless Wine Glasses 400ML 6pc, $49.95, from Myer                

Stemless wine glasses will always find a use, especially for Christmas day drinks! This six-piece set make for a beautiful, purposeful gift.

stainless-steel-water-bottle
The Iconic

VR Water Bottle, $40, from The Iconic

Sustainability is becoming more and more popular, especially in a world where gifting can lead to a lot of unwanted and unused things lying around the house. Why not buy your friends or family a stainless-steel water bottle? You can feel great about your awesome gift and eliminating plastic at the same time.

typo-portable-charger-gift
Typo

Ultimate Charge It Charger, $39.99, from Typo

Another purposeful gift, absolutely everyone could benefit from a portable phone charger!

typo-wellness-planner-gift
Typo

2022 Large Weekly Wellness Planner, $49.99, from Typo

For the organised hustler in your life, a weekly planner is the stuff of December dreams. While there’s so many to choose from, this one also includes words of wisdom, mindfulness exercises, and has room for goal-setting too.

the-iconic-card-game-gift
The Iconic

General Knowledge Quiz, $19.95, from The Iconic

Christmas is always a very social time! If you belong to a group that loves games, why not gift someone a quiz set you can all get some use out of?

adore-beauty-lip-gloss
Adore Beauty

Mirenesse Best Sellers Trio - Velvet Matte Liquid Lip Minis, $39, from Adore Beauty

It’s always fun to give and receive makeup at Christmas time, and so many stockists have beautiful gift packs! However, if you want something a little more general, lip gloss is always a go-to.

sephora-eyeshadow-palette-gift
Sephora

Christmas Mini Eyeshadow Palette Kit, $38, from Sephora

Eyeshadow is another fun go-to for something a little more generic. Gift this particular palette to the sparkle-loving person in your life.
